From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050915 Fedora/1.5-0.5.0.beta1 Firefox/1.4 Description of problem: After using gnome-power-manager (or starting the pm-suspend script directly) to suspend an nx7010 (with ATI mobility radeon 9200), the machine resumes, the screen powers on, but remains black. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pm-utils-0.04-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run pm-suspend 2. wait until machine is suspended 3. press power button Actual Results: Screen remains black Expected Results: Screen should display same data as when suspend was invoked. Additional info: Changing the suspend_video and resume_video functions in /etc/pm/functions-ati as below made things work for me (though I do not doubt it will break stuff for others, just adding it here for the benefit of those with a similar setup). suspend_video() { /usr/sbin/vbetool vbestate save > /tmp/atisuspendstate } resume_video() { /usr/sbin/vbetool post /usr/sbin/vbetool vbestate restore < /tmp/atisuspendstate }
Is this still a problem with FC5 test2 or later?
Running pm-utils-0.09-1 the same problem still occurs (screen remains black with backlight on).
This has been requested for Intel based systems as well, so i'll include this vbestate save and restore functionality to all 3 major cards (Intel, ATI and Nvidia). Fix will be in next build. Please let me know if this fixes the problem for you. Read ya, Phil
